Squeaky brakes can be an indication that your brake pads are worn. If you have squeaky brakes, your better off getting them checked and replaced if necessary rather than to wait and have damage done to the brake system and a much higher brake repair bill.

Disc brakes have a piston seal in the calipers that retract the piston and release the pads from the rotors.
